Intake Leak
My 01 screw 4.6 is starting to seep a little coolant out of the fitting on the right front corner of the intake.The one that the 5/8 coolant hose goes to. Any fixes for this, or just get a new unit?

No its not cracked, the leak is coming out from around where the steel pipe fitting is pressed into the aluminum.
